Book Ends From CDs & DVDs & a Candle! (Video Included)
Make quick bookends from CDs or DVDs and a candle. They can be painted and decorate up however you wish. Though small they hold books up to 8" tall!
Though these are short they hold fairly decent sized books as you can see in the photo. These would be fun for kids books too as you can decorate them up all kinds of fun ways with paint and/or labels. I did a quick spray paint on mine an stuck a sticker on it just to show how its done.
Make a line where you want to bend the CD. I make mine a little over half way. Exactness is not necessary here.
Slowly move the CD over a lit candle until it starts to bend. Keep bending to desired angle.
After it cools easily wipe of the soot.
Paint and decorate as desired!
